Taking the command and promise of II Timothy 1:8-9 to heart, TESTIFY is doing just that: testifying to what God has done in their lives and what he can do in the lives of others. Believing that obtaining salvation is the most important decision anyone can make, TESTIFY wants to do all it can to make sure everyone they meet knows the importance of that decision.

Feeling the call of God on their lives to minister to the hearts of people, Brent and Kenneth Swanner formed TESTIFY in February of 1995. Landon Thompson joined TESTIFY September 25, 1999. TESTIFY is a full time music ministry dedicated to carrying out the call God has on their lives. TESTIFY comes to you with a servant's heart, making no demands. Giving the  Lord their heart, mind, body and soul, they are, "Ready to Serve."
